Former senior defense official: "There is no need to attack Iran right now - additional attacks will not help"
Maj. Gen. (res.) Eliezer 'Chayni' Marom, former Navy commander and senior researcher at the Begin-Sadat Center, stated in an interview with 103fm that there is no need to attack Iran at this time unless there is intelligence about an imminent nuclear test. According to him, another attack would not harm the nuclear program nor topple the regime, and could lead to regional escalation and a spike in energy prices. He expressed doubt that the fall of the current regime would lead to positive change, as the Revolutionary Guards are expected to determine the next leader and ensure continuity of radical rule. The article presents only Marom's position, without opposing voices from those supporting an attack.
